Hardy cousins,
Our thoughts and prayers were with you today. We wished we could have joined you but it wasn't to be. Jack Hardy was kind enough to send a picture of the Mailey baskets you used and they looked beautiful! So, in a way, the Mailey's were represented and we love that you used them! We are, again, so sorry for your loss as we know how close you all were to your mother. We wish you all peace and comfort in the coming days and years. Your parents were both great people! Sincerely.

Mary was a great delight. And she did love her music. When I directed the choir at Immaculate Conception parish Mary was quite the treasure and friend.
Please accept our family's sympathy.

Dear Hardy Clan,
Your mom, with her twinkling eyes,great smile & warm heart, was a bright and constant light in my Everett years & now. Her even-keeled approach to life, her devotion to family & her tireless community service will always remain a great wellspring of inspiration. Not to mention, her active creativity! The stellar, show-stopping skating attire that came out of the Hardy workshop was legendary on the competitive circuit. The sewing machine hummed & creations were fitted as Gram's sweet baking wafted from the kitchen, through the hall and down the stairs. I was always proud that the Hardy Girls ruled with grand performance scores AND their stellar skate dresses. Lest we forget the blue 'Immac' cheer leading uniforms she made us, which were perfect.
Memorable summers were spent with tea steeping while ice cubes & sugar-sweetened lemons stood by, ready to produce the most divine liquid refreshment on earth (best taken in while under the backyard oak). Anyone lucky enough to enter the Meuleman orbit found themselves in heaven.
Always 'Mrs Hardy' or 'Mom' to me, I'm
forever grateful for what she so freely & constantly provided. She will be SO missed, but never forgotten.
Love, profound sympathy & big hugs,
Mon

Dear Margie, Bill and family--and the entire Hardy family,
Your Mom sparkled. We came to life around her, especially through her humor. It is the passing of an era. Reading her obituary made me realize I (Jeanie) was born on her birthday, but it was Tom who sent her the presents. Each time we were with her made an impact on us.
Love you all,
Jeanie and Tom Robinson

Dear Maureen, Sheila, Margi and all the Hardy's,

Your mom was one of my favorite people for a very long time. She was such a good mother to you and a great friend to me. She will continue to take care of us all from heaven. I am still recovering from knee replacement surgery, but will make every effort to attend the funeral on Saturday.
With my love and prayers,
